“Jackie” has over 30 years of experience working in the fields of Social Services and Education in both the Public and Private Sectors. She has worked with people of ages ranging from 15-105.

Jackie has always had an entrepreneurial spirit. As her children were growing up she wanted to be available for them and managing a regular job was demanding enough. As her 2 children grew into young adults, Jackie felt it was time to follow her dream to open her own company, Golden Home Care was then incorporated in 2012.
Having always lived her life with a “positive perspective”, she has combined this with her passion for helping people. Her company’s name is true to its word and her many clients can attest to the great quality of care and service it provides. Golden Home Care has become a successful, respected Home Care Provider, and Jackie’s reputation has been established as a leader in this field.

Dawn has been with Golden Home Care since January 2019. She has a Bachelor of Commerce in Marketing and Accounting, as well as a certification in Human Resources Management. After 20+ years in the corporate world, Dawn decided that she wanted to continue her career working with a locally based company where her skills could be used to help people in a meaningful way.
Dawn has a special place in her heart for seniors. She was the primary caregiver for both her mom and her aunt and is grateful that she was able to be there for them. When her mother was diagnosed with vascular dementia and Alzheimer’s, Dawn and her husband welcomed her into their home, where they cared for her for several years. This experience heightened her compassion for family caregivers and understands the importance of support and self-care for those facing such challenges.
During Dawn’s time at Golden Home Care, her dedication, attention to detail and commitment to customer service has been exceptional. These skills in addition to her belief and embracement of our Mission, Vision & Values make her an excellent and compatible part of our team.
Tara joined Golden Home Care in the spring of 2021. After graduating with a bachelor’s in accounting from Bishop’s University in 2015, she proceeded to get her designation as a Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) at McGill University in 2016.
After working in the corporate world for 5 years, Tara decided it was time to explore her entrepreneurial passion and combine her business experience with her desire to work with and help people.
As a student, Tara toyed with a few small business initiatives, as well as coached and tutored many adolescents, encouraging them to have confidence in themselves and achieve their full potential, thus discovering her interest in helping others. Tara’s corporate experience, as well as her commitment and interest in providing quality care, are an asset in her role as an active member of the Client Care Coordination Team and in the daily operations and development of the company.
Tara’s kind and gentle manner, combined with her strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail, drive her to continuously support and care for our clients while finding the best way to develop strategic planning.
Serena is the newest member of our Golden Home Care team, joining in the Spring of 2022. She has always been involved in her community, which led her to study in the department of Applied Human Sciences at Concordia University, where she graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Therapeutic Recreation.
Serena’s passion for helping others guided her through various professional ventures. She has worked as a Daycare Educator and as a Youth Services Coordinator with “at risk” youth. Most recently, Serena was employed as a Recreation Therapist, developing and implementing recreational programs for seniors and adults and then as a Coordinator for individuals living in a long-term care residence.
Serena particularly enjoyed working with seniors and appreciates learning about their life experiences through the wonderful stories they shared. She was responsible for planning and adapting meaningful activities for individuals with varying physical and cognitive abilities, that provided purpose and enhanced their quality of life. Serena has excellent interpersonal skills which were instrumental in leading and managing a team of staff and volunteers in workshops.
When the pandemic hit in 2020, she had to readjust very quickly. Her main goal was to put a smile on her residents’ faces while they were confined to their rooms and trying to navigate through the restrictions.
Serena’s background in leisure and recreation will complement our services and help us all learn how to elevate the quality of interaction and support that we can provide to our clients.
Serena has an optimistic attitude and kind heart. She is a firm believer that “the client comes first”, and she will treat them as one of her own family members to ensure they are receiving Golden Home Care.

This role involved the recruitment, training, and scheduling of volunteers as well as communicating regularly with the entire team of nurses, social workers, and families to ensure the smooth operation of the program.
Deb's invaluable experience in these roles has contributed to her ability to understand our clients' health care needs and to help them and their families during vulnerable and challenging times, all the while liaising between all parties involved in the care planning.
